Hero-of-Time Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 First review is in. Ok so its from OXM but still..... Singleplayer: 10/10Multiplayer: 10/10 Overall: 10/10 New info released in review: 10/10, with multiplayer rivaling Halo 3, a ranking system better than Halo 3, 10/10 Singleplayer AND multiplayer (alone). Enemy Intel unlocks cheats, some normal (Unlimited Ammo), some cool and fun (When you kill an enemy, they burst into a mound of tires). -Arcade mode after completing game (Points for Headshots, multi-kills, and blowing up cars and such) -Max level 55, but stuff keeps coming after that. -All ghillied up is the flashback, you play as Cpt. Price (a young one) -CoD4 manages to cram something into every level. -You play as "Soap" MacTavish (SAS), and Seargant Jackson (US) -"To say Modern Warfare's visual fidelity is immediately apparent would be a criminal understatement. Torrid rainfall, rolling thunder crackling lightning, and marvelously detailed textures and character models all combine to make you say "Whoa"." -CoD4 does everything right and nearly nothing wrong. But where it elevates itself above even the best 360 shooters is how all of the good stuf is ludicrously good. The campaign never lets up, while the multiplayer is a AAA affair in itself. This swing for the fences has belted CoD4 way out of the park. What you all wanted to know Overkill Perk: You can carry 2 primary weapons instead of 1 and a pistol. e.g I could go into a battle with an MP5 and a M16. + and - +Awesome Moments on literally every mission. +Multiplayer quality, quantity and depth that rivals Halo's. -A few frustratingly tough areas on the higher difficulty levels. It also mentioned that the game kept a good pace throughout the game (most games fizz out later on) Captions from Review The visuals look better in motion. In the moste tense moment in the game's best level (All Ghillied Up), all you can do is wait and pray. (It shows a pic of you prone with enemies 5-10 feet away) Fire? Chaos? Guns blazing? Does it look like Call of Duty now? Smash people like ants in the AC-130 gunship level. A whopping 16 multiplayer maps await you out of the box. Article: 13 playlists, unlocked as you rank up 60 FPS- as if u didn't know already World War II is history! With a reinvigorated developer at the helm, Call of Duty 4 reinvents a franchise - and damn near perfects the military shooter in the process.

McPhee Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 10/10? Yeah, right.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 10/10? Yeah, right.... i reckon the multiplayer will be 10/10, its easily better than any other FPS multiplayer at the moment imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPhee Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Im merely doubting the possibility of any game to achieve 10/10, not the merits of CoD4 itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Im merely doubting the possibility of any game to achieve 10/10, not the merits of CoD4 itself But didn't Halo 3 and Boishock both receive 10/10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPhee Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Yup, which is why i dislike the 10/10 rating. If they give Bioshock 10/10 and Halo turns out to be better then what can they give Halo? They have to give it 10/10. If CoD4 then turned out to be better still then they are completely stuffed None of those games are perfect, so it is very possible a better one will arrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesley Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 http://kotaku.com/gaming/ten/what-does-a-perfect-score-mean-308968.php This discusses the perfect score idea... I don't view 10/10 as being perfect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caris Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Same, when reading review games that get 10/10 they still have bad points. Just not enough to take it down to a 9. More like a 96%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 10/10 basically means a must buy, its not saying its the perfect game, its saying its one of the best games around at this moment. And COD4 looks like its going to be one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Imo, scores should be out of one million, so its more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Once again it looks like this so called next gen is going to fail in regards to single player gaming. I have just seen on the XBOX.com forums that CoD4 has a single player lifespan of 6 hours on normal difficulty. Apparently it is in this months OXM and it got 9/10. They said it is very short in the round up but in the reivew they say it last 6 hours. Im pretty disappointed by this if it turns out to be true. Sure it will last longer on Veteran but still...

Guest Jordan Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 But think about it this way HoT, since all the achievements are from the single player, you can get them really fast :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
